Detecting similar and identical images using perseptual hashes

Detecting similar and identical images using perseptual hashes

Couple of my hobbies are travelling and photography. I love to take pictures and experiment with photography. Usually after my trips, I just copy the photos to either my iPad or couple of my external hard disks. After 10 years, I have over 200K photos distributed across several disks and machines. I had to find a way to organize these photos and create a workflow for future maintenance. In this post I want to address one of the issues I had to solve: ** finding duplicate images **.

First, I needed to find out what exactly is a duplicate image. Analysing my photos, I found couple of interesting things:

  1. Identical images: There were multiple copies of the same photo in different directories with different names.
    2. Similar images: I usually bracket (exposure compensate or flash compensate) important pictures. So I have photos that visually appear to be the same, but may be a little darker/lighter based on e

WEBRip Using OBS on Linux

How to WEBrip Audio and Video Using OBS on Linux for Beginners (to give back to the seven seas)

  1. Start OBS and open settings. Set the the recording canvas and output canvas to that of the video playback resolution. So if the playback is 1080p, set both to 1080p.

  2. Set the recording bitrate. This number may needing a bit of tweaking, but the bigger the number, the higher the quality. You will reach a point of diminishing returns depending on the video's resolution, but it's good to do some test recordings and view the clip to check if it's ok. Here is a chart for the standard bitrates:

Type Video Bitrate, Standard Frame Rate (24, 25, 30) Video Bitrate, High Frame Rate (48, 50, 60)
2160p (4K) 35–45 Mbps 53–68 Mbps
1440p (2K) 16 Mbps 24 Mbps

How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

NOTE

by the time you're reading this, this probably no longer works since the policy has been removed. I reccomend you to check out https://github.com/r58Playz/uBlock-mv3 instead

How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

  1. google's manifest v3 has no analouge to the webRequestBlocking API, which is neccesary for (effective) adblockers to work
  2. starting in chrome version 127, the transition to mv3 will start cutting off the use of mv2 extensions alltogether
  3. this will inevitably piss of enterprises when their extensions don't work, so the ExtensionManifestV2Availability key was added and will presumably stay forever after enterprises complain enough

You can use this as a regular user, which will let you keep your mv2 extensions even after they're supposed to stop working
